Come along to our free playgroup every Wednesday from 8:30am to 9:30am during the school term. It’s a relaxed and welcoming space for children of all ages to play, explore, and connect – and a great chance for parents and carers to meet others in the community.
If the weather is nice, we’ll be outside enjoying our vibrant Kindergarten playground, perfect for active play and outdoor fun. Other times we’ll be in the school hall, where a variety of engaging activities and creative crafts will be set up to keep everyone entertained.
No need to book – just come along and join the fun! You can see more information on our private playgroup facebook group.
Starting School at St Brendan’s
We know that starting school is a big and exciting step for both children and their families. At St Brendan’s, we’re here to make that transition as smooth and joyful as possible.
Our “I’m Starting School” booklet gives children a friendly introduction to school life – what to bring, where to go, and all the fun things they’ll get to do. It’s filled with helpful tips, familiar faces, and a glimpse into the wonderful spaces they’ll explore, from the playground to the library, the church, and even meeting Vic, our therapy dog!
Parents will also find practical advice to help prepare their child for the journey ahead, including routines, independence, and what to expect at drop-off and pick-up.
